THALLI POGATHEY

Hello.-Pallavi, where are you?

I'm on my way to shopping, Arun.-Okay.

Listen, my friends are coming over for a party this evening.

Please plan accordingly. Okay.

Yeah, okay. Okay. Bye.-Bye.

Bye.

-It'll take me a while. -It's ok.

Yes?

Hi, I am Pallavi.

-I'm here for Karthik. -Yeah, he's inside.

Shall I come in?

-Yeah sure -Okay.

Karthik.

Karthik.

Karthik!

I knew you'll come back for me.

Karthik...

I need to talk to you.

One minute, Pallavi.

Hi!

Ma'am!

Sorry, ma'am.

I had left the plate behind.

So, I had to run back to house...

Bharatham is an innate art.

The plate has nothing to do with it.

You need focus and dedication to become a dancer.

I totally understand that, ma'am

This is your last chance. Join them.

Sorry, ma'am.

Neither you have grace nor rhythm.

You're a disgrace to this place.

I don't get it why you want to learn dance.

It's better give this plate to your mother...

fill it with delicious food,

and eat to your hearts' content. You're only capable of it.

-Ma'am one last chance-- -Get lost.

Do you really need to learn dance? Come on, tell me.

Dance is not going to take you places.

Once you graduate, it's best to settle with a Microsoft groom.

Instead of discarding your Aadhar and getting a Green card...

you're stuck with this razzmatazz.

Nisha, when you're cleaning up your room you find an old photo album...

and flip through the pictures,

it reminds us of the good times frozen as memories.

-Agreed? -You're right.

Similarly, my activities...

my passion for dance,

when my future husband and children,

look at those pictures and videos,

I'll have a gleaming smile on my face. Am I right?

That's why.

Nisha, life is not about just making money.

Life is about making sweet memories.

So is the dance.

I don't want any memories.

My to-be bride...

should be modest and submissive.

Hope you understood, my dear wife.

I'm not your wife.

You are my girl.

I shouldn't see you anymore dancing or in such attires.

I'll be really pissed.

Just to humiliate him, I should learn dance.

I doesn't matter which dance form it is.

Let's go.

Wow!

-What is it? -I found him.

-Found who? -Yes.

My dance master.

Dance master, uh?

Hey, his dance form doesn't come under any category.

How can he be a master?

Look at him, it's an art.

I'm going to kill you. What's wrong with you?

He's not an ordinary master...

but a mass entertainer.

Guys, how are your drinks?

Sir, would you like to have a drink?

Sir, you've mistaken us.

It's just fruit juice.

It's been approved by Indian Medical Association.

Shut up!

Seems like you guys are having fun.

-You're her to spoil it. -Fun is overrated, sir.

Life has become a struggle.

I don't know when I'll get my PhD, a job and settle in life.

I have no clue about it.

Settling down is just a state of mind.

If you take a street vendor for instance...

according to him, he's well-settled.

Karthik should remain as Karthik...

he has to achieve heights.

-Shouldn't settle for less. -Do you want him to become a monk?

You should settle in such a way that no one can shake you down.

I heard you guys haven't paid your hostel fees.

-Sir... didn't we pay? -We've never paid it, buddy.

Hey, I meant fees, damn it.

Hey, you cheque book got drenched in water.

Oh, yeah, my cheque book.

Sir, cheque book got drenched.

We've put it for dry.

Full speed, it'll be dry in no time.

It's a very powerful fan. It'll be dried soon.

Listen, without clearing the hostel dues, you can't enter the classroom.

Be careful!

Sir, I'll pay the fees.

But make sure you don't come to the class.

It's a shame that you call him your Godfather.

-These money minting techniques. -Who knows. Let's go.

Hey, he's over there.

-Hey. -Greetings, sir.

Jesus blesses you with good health.

Also he blesses you with long hair--

I meant long life, long life.

-Who the hell are you? -I'm Pallavi.

I'm a medical college student.

I want to learn dance.

Fine, learn dance. What do you want from me?

You have to take me as your student.

I don't get it?

Madam, if he's not ready, I'll take you as my student.

Kala master was my student.

-He's a fraud, Pallavi. -What's bothering her?

Who told you that I take dance lessons?

A while ago, you were dancing.

I couldn't take my eyes off you.

-You were extremely professional. -Awesome.

You were graceful.

Oh, no, she's smitten.

-Listen here, Janaki. -I'm Pallavi, not Janaki.

Fine, Pallavi, it doesn't matter.

I'm a PhD student. And I'm extremely busy.

I have no time for this. Please find someone else.

-Who are these girls? -I don't know.

They've been ranting nonsense.

You don't have to do it for free.

I'll definitely pay a fee for it.

It'll be great if you state your fee.

-Buddy, Jesus has blessed us. -Yes.

Our problems will be solved.

How much is the hostel fee?

It's 500 rupees each.

Just pretend to contemplate and agree to it.

Jesus, please bless us all.

I want to although... I want to, uh...

Even Rajamouli wouldn't have taken so long.

You're over acting. Stop it right away.

Madam, how much can you pay?

Five hundred.

-Thousand-- -Five thousand.

-5000 is it?! -Five thousand...

That's like hundred 50's.

-Agree to it. -It's a small fee though

-I'm not keen about the money. -Don't mess it up.

Your dream is important than money.

Madam, now that sir has agreed.

You can pay an advance.

First practice then comes payment.

Why not first advance then dance?

Hey.

Fine, we'll start the classes from tomorrow.

You can roll her to the class as well.

-Thank you, master. -There she goes again.

Bye, master.

You've become a Master, before Thalapathy did.

My friend is a master, now. He's a master. He's a master!

Why is she greeting like Power star?

Amazing! Amazing!

Shall we begin?

What is dance?

The power from the entire universe...

we should spiritually embrace them.

We should cleanse our breath.

As a fragment of music...

we'll transform our worldly body.

I thought he was conning her, but he sounds genuine.

-Understood? -Understood, master.

Bloody, he dances high on liquor.

But conning her with literature.

She sounds like a chronic alcoholic.

Shut up. We're not here for an orchestra.

Hey, play our traditional music.

Sure, seer. Move your hand, damn it.

Wow, superb!

Superb!

-That was excellent, you nailed it. -Thank you, buddy.

You were amazing.

Were you able to grasp the dance technique?

-I did, master. -Why don't you show me?

Oh, no, buddy. She's gone mad.

Hey, stop it!

You're dancing like a doofus with no grace.

This is dance, not a joke.

What are you doing?

When you shake your head, only the head should be shaking.

When you shake your hip, only the hip should be shaking.

If your whole body shakes at the same time...

you'll look like a monkey getting spasm.
